Some Pictures from Kea Island

Here are some more pictures from last weekends excursion to Kea Island.
I took only a few pictures, and since the camera in my phone isn't so
great, this is what you get :-) Look inside for the pictures...

We start with a little panorama I took from the entrance of the city of
Ioulida (the capital of Kea island). Cars only get till here. The
picture was taken from the edge of the taxi parking lot. The island is
pretty green for an aegean island, though to northern europeans it will
appear dry. (Click on the image for a somewhat larger view.)

This is a street scene in Ioulida. It is so empty, because we were there
during noon hours when decent people are either indoors sleeping through
their siesta or sit in a cafe. We went to a cafe shortly after this :-)

Another city scene, we had met one lady shortly before this and a couple
of tourists a little bit afterwards. One can see much of the city on the
rise of the hill.

I liked these balconies. The upper one is nice and picturesque, but the
lower one is more comfortable to sit outside in the evenings.

On the way back from swimming on Sunday, we saw this picturesque
coastline. Prospective tourists rest assured, even though it looks all
rocky, there are some sandy beaches on Kea.
